Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better

Is Coach Stanley next?

The Mystics lost their 11th in a row last night to LA.

But... Washington played pretty well. Haven't had much good to say about Stacey Dales-Schuman lately, and many say she's the most overrated player in the league, but last night she played well, with 19 points and 4 three-pointers.

But LA was just too good. Every starter in double figures, the team shot 57%, Dixon had 28, Leslie had 18 points, 9 rebounds, 6 blocks.... that's just tough to beat.

Still, the Mystics felt good. Dales-Schuman said: "Moral victories are huge." Coach Stanley also noted that it's still mathematically possible for the Mystics to make the playoffs. Place your bets.
